CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims the benefit of and priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2018-0104008, filed on Aug. 31, 2018, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus and, more specifically, to a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus having an insulating plate.

DISCUSSION OF THE RELATED ART

Graphene is a form of carbon in which carbon atoms are arranged in a two-dimensional thin film having a honeycomb structure. In graphene, the carbon atoms form a carbon hexagonal plane having a two-dimensional structure in which carbon atoms have a sp² orbital hybridization. The aggregate of carbon atoms having this planar structure is referred, to as graphene, and the thickness of graphene is about 0.34 nm, which corresponds to the thickness of only one carbon atom. Graphene is structurally and chemically very stable and is an excellent conductor of electricity that has a charge mobility that is about 100 times faster than silicon, and may allow a flow of current that is about 100 times greater than that of copper. In addition, graphene has excellent transparency and may have higher transparency than indium tin oxide (ITO), which is often used conventionally as a transparent electrode. Various studies have been conducted to apply graphene to electronic devices based on the characteristics of graphene.

In recent years, attempts have been made to manufacture a semiconductor device including a graphene film by directly growing graphene on a substrate by using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The method of directly growing graphene may be desirable in that a graphene transfer process may be omitted, but a substrate and/or a material film on the substrate may be prone to deterioration during direct graphene growth as a high growth temperature is generally used for obtaining high-quality graphene.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, embodiments of the inventive concept will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In describing exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure illustrated in the drawings, specific terminology is employed for sake of clarity. However, the present disclosure is not intended to be limited to the specific terminology so selected, and it is to be understood that each specific element includes all technical equivalents which operate in a similar manner. In the drawings and detailed description, the same or similar elements may be denoted by the same reference numerals.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 according to exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept.

Referring to FIG. 1, the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 may include a process chamber 110, a stage 120, an insulating plate 130, a reflector 140, a gas supplier 150, a radiator 160, a gas injector 170, and a plasma generator 180.

The semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 may be a plasma processing apparatus that is configured to processes a substrate 101 in the process chamber 110 by using plasma. For example, the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 may be a plasma deposition apparatus for depositing a material layer on the substrate 101, and the processing chamber 110 may be a plasma deposition chamber for performing a plasma deposition process. For example, the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 may be configured to grow a graphene film on the substrate 101 by using plasma, and also may be configured to manufacture a semiconductor device by depositing a graphene film on the substrate 101 by using plasma. However, the use of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 according to the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 may perform an etching process, a cleaning process, and the like.

The substrate 101 may be a wafer, for example, a silicon substrate. For example, the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 may be configured to deposit a material film on a silicon substrate. In exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 may be configured to directly grow a graphene film on a silicon substrate by using plasma.

The process chamber 110 may define an interior space. The interior space of the process chamber 110 may be partitioned into a first space 111 and a second space 112 by the insulating plate 130 and/or the reflector 140. The first space 111 is a space provided above the insulating plate 130 and/or the reflector 140 and may be a space where plasma is generated. The second space 112 is a space provided below the insulating plate 130 and/or the reflector 140. The second space 112 may be a space where the plasma generated in the first space 111 is diffused and the substrate 101 is processed.

An exhaust pipe 119 may be provided at a lower portion of the process chamber 110 and may be connected to a vacuum pump 118. The vacuum pump 118 may adjust the pressure of the interior space of the process chamber 110 such that a pressure atmosphere suitable for plasma generation and/or plasma processing is formed in the interior space of the process chamber 110. A gate valve 117 is configured to open and close an opening 116 through which the substrate 101 is carried in and carried out. The gate valve 117 may be disposed on the side wall, of the process chamber 110.

The stage 120 may be disposed in the second space 112 in the process chamber 110. The substrate 101 may be disposed on the upper surface of the stage 120. The stage 120 may support the substrate 101 during plasma processing. In addition, the stage 120 may serve as an electrode during the plasma processing. For example, when a bias power is applied to the stage 120 during the plasma processing, the stage 120 may serve as an electrode.

In exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, the stage 120 may include aluminium nitride (AlN), aluminium (Al), silicon carbide (SiC), stainless steel, or a combination thereof.

The stage 120 may include a stage heater 121. The stage 120 may drive the stage heater 121 to thereby heat the substrate 101 supported by the stage 120 and also to thereby heat the second space 112. For example, the stage heater 121 may be configured to heat the substrate 101 to a temperature suitable for processing the substrate 101 during the plasma processing.

The stage heater 121 may include a heating electrode 1211. The heating electrode 1211 may be embedded in the stage 120. For example, the heating electrode 1211 may have a concentric or helical pattern with respect to the central axis of the stage 120. The heating electrode 1211 may include a conductor of electricity, for example, a metal such as tungsten (W), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo), titanium (Ti), nickel-chromium (Ni—Cr) alloy, or nickel-aluminium (Ni—Al) alloy or an electrically conductive ceramic such as tungsten carbide (WC), molybdenum carbide (MoC), or titanium nitride (TiN).

The stage heater 121 may be electrically connected to a heater power supplier 1213. The heater power supplier 1213 may apply power (e.g., an AC voltage) to the heating electrode 1211 to thereby heat the heating electrode 1211. The temperature of the stage 120 and the substrate 120 supported by the stage 120 may be adjusted by the heated heating electrode 1211.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating the insulating plate 130 and the reflector 140 shown in FIG. 1.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the insulating plate 130 may be provided in the process chamber 110 and may divide an interior space of the process chamber 110 into the first space 111 and the second space 112. For example, the insulating plate 130 may be installed in the process chamber 110 to horizontally extend in the interior space of the process chamber 110. The insulating plate 130 may be disk-shaped and may include one or more first through holes 131 that allows plasma generated in the first space 111 to pass into the second space 112.

The insulating plate 130 may be configured to thermally isolate the first space 111 from the second space 112. Since the first space 111 and the second space 112 may be thermally separated from each other by the insulating plate 130, the temperature of the second space 112 may be maintained at a temperature lower than the temperature of the first space 111, even if the first space 111 in which plasma is generated has a relatively high temperature.

For example, the insulating plate 130 may include a low thermal conductivity material. For example, the insulating plate 130 may include ceramic, quartz, and the like.

The reflector 140 may be provided on the insulating plate 130. The reflector 140 may cover the upper surface of the insulating plate 130. For example, the reflector 140 may be installed in the process chamber 110 to horizontally extend in the interior space of the process chamber 110, for example, in a manner similar to that of the insulating plate 130. The reflector 140 may be plate-shaped and may include at least one second through hole 141 that allows plasma generated in the first space 111 to pass into the second space 112. The second through hole 141 of the reflector 140 may communicate with the first through hole 131 of the insulating plate 130.

The reflector 140 may thermally isolate the first space 111 from the second space 112 together with the insulating plate 130. The reflector 140 may block radiant heat transfer between the first space 111 and the second space 112. For example, the reflector 140 may reflect infrared rays travelling from the first space 111 to the second space 112 to suppress radiation heat transfer between the first e 111 and the second space 112. Since the radiation heat transfer is blocked between the first space 111 and the second space 112 by the reflector 140, even when the first space 111 has a higher temperature than the second space 112, the temperature of the second space 112 may be maintained at a temperature lower than the temperature of the first space 111.

Referring back to FIG. 1, the gas supplier 150 may supply a process gas to the first space 111 of the process chamber 110. For example, the gas supplier 150 may supply a source gas, a purge gas, or the like to the first space 111. As shown in FIG. 1, the gas supplier 150 may be connected to the gas injector 170 provided on the side wall of the process chamber 110 and may supply a process gas to the first space 111 through the gas injector 170. Alternatively, the gas supplier 150 may supply a process gas to the first space 111 through the top wall of the process chamber 110.

For example, the gas supplier 150 may include an inert gas supply source for supplying an inert gas for plasma generation. For example, the inert gas supply source may be configured to supply Ar, He, Ne, Kr, Xe, etc. to the first space 111. The inert gas supplied by the gas supplier 150 may be plasmatized in the first space 111 by the plasma generator 180.

In addition, the gas supplier 150 may include a source gas supply source for supplying a source gas, for example, a deposition source gas or an etch source gas.

The radiator 160 may heat the first space 111 of the process chamber 110. For example, the radiator 160 may be installed on the side wall of the process chamber 110. The radiator 160 may provide a temperature atmosphere suitable for generating radicals having high activation energy. For example, the radiator 160 may heat the first space 111 to a high temperature so that radicals generated from a process gas in the first space 111 have higher activation energies.

The gas injector 170 may be connected to the gas supplier 150 and may inject a process gas supplied through the gas supplier 150 into the first space 111. For example, the gas injector 170 may be installed on the side wall of the process chamber 110 and may be configured to inject a process gas in an inward direction of the first space 111.

The plasma generator 180 may generate plasma in the first space 111. The plasma generator 180 may generate an electric field in the first space 111 and thus generate plasma from the process gas in the first space 111. The plasma generator 180 may generate plasma in the first space 111, for example, through a direct plasma method. The direct plasma method may refer to a method of generating plasma directly in the process chamber 110, which is a substrate processing space.

In exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, the plasma generator 180 may generate plasma from the process gas of the first space 111. The plasma generator 180 may generate an inductively coupled plasma, a capacitively coupled plasma, or a microwave plasma.

In the case where the plasma generator 180 is configured to generate an inductively coupled plasma, the plasma generator 180 may include a high frequency power source 181 an impedance matcher 182, and a high frequency antenna 183. For example a ceiling of the process chamber 110 may be provided with a dielectric window 184 spaced from the reflector 140. An antenna chamber 185 may be installed integrally with the process chamber 110 to receive a high frequency antenna 183 having a coil shape such as a spiral or a concentric circle on the dielectric window 184. The high frequency antenna 183 may be electrically connected to the high frequency power source 181 through the impedance matcher 182. The high frequency power source 181 may output a high frequency power suitable for plasma generation. The impedance matcher 182 may be provided for matching the impedance of the high frequency power source 181 with a load, for example, the impedance of the high frequency antenna 183.

As the process gas supplied from the gas supplier 150 is injected into the first space 111 through the gas injector 170, the process gas, such as a deposition source gas and a plasma generation source gas, may be uniformly diffused in the first space 111. A magnetic field may be generated around the high frequency antenna 183 due to a current flowing in the high frequency antenna 183, and magnetic force lines may penetrate the dielectric window 184 and pass through the first space 111. An induced electric field may be generated by a temporal change of the magnetic field, and electrons accelerated by the induced electric field may collide with molecules or atoms of a deposition source gas to thereby generate plasma. The plasma generated in the first space 111 may be diffused into the second space 112 through the second through hole 141 of the reflector 140 and the first through hole 131 of the insulating plate 130. The plasma supplied to the second space 112 may react with the substrate 101 or a material film that is disposed on the substrate 101 to thereby grow a desired material film on the substrate 101.

FIG. 3 is a plan view illustrating the radiator 160 and the gas injector 170 in the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the radiator 160 and the gas injector 170 shown in FIG. 1.

Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4 together with FIG. 1, the radiator 160 may extend in a circumferential direction of the process chamber 110. The radiator 160 may include a heat generating body 161 extending in the circumferential direction of the process chamber 110 and a heating element 163 installed in the heat generating body 161.

In exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, the heating element 163 may include a lamp, an ultraviolet (UV) light source, a light-emitting diode (LED) light source, a laser light source, or a hot wire.

A plurality of gas injector 170 may be installed on the radiator 160 and be spaced apart from each other in the circumferential direction of the radiator 160. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, eight gas injectors 170 may be installed. The eight gas injectors 170 may be radially spaced apart from each other. A process gas injected from the gas injectors 170 may be injected toward the center of the process chamber 110.

As shown in FIG. 4, each of the gas injectors 170 may extend through the radiator 160 and may include a flow path 171 for guiding the process gas. The flow path 171 may guide the process gas such that the process gas supplied through the gas supplier 150 is supplied to the first space 111 via the radiator 160. In this case, the radiator 160 may heat the process gas flowing along the flow path 171 of the gas injector 170, and thus, a high-temperature process gas may be injected into the first space 111. In the flow path 171, the process gas may be swirled and uniformly dispersed and then be supplied to the first space 111. If necessary, a gas filter for filtering impurities and the like may be installed in the flow path 171.

FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an insulating plate 130 a according to exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept.

Referring to FIG. 5, the insulating plate 130 a may include an air pocket 133. The air pocket 133 may be a cavity formed inside the insulating plate 130 a. In exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, the air pocket 133 may be filled with a gas such as air. The air pocket 133 may lower the thermal conductivity of the insulating plate 130 a. Since the thermal conductivity of the insulating plate 130 a may be lowered by the air pocket 133, heat transfer between the first space 111 and the second space 112 may be reduced.

FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 a according to exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept. The semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 a shown in FIG. 6 may have substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1, except for the configuration of a plasma, generator 180 a. Thus, descriptions overlapping with those described with reference to FIG. 1 are omitted or simplified and to the extent that a description of various elements have been omitted, it may be assumed that the omitted details are at least similar to the details of corresponding elements that have already been described.

Referring to FIG. 6, the plasma generator 180 a may include a remote plasma generator 187 disposed outside of the process chamber 110. The remote plasma generator 187 may be configured to supply a remote plasma source (RPS) generated in a remote plasma method to the process chamber 110. The remote plasma generator 187 may generate plasma from a process gas supplied from a gas supplier 150 and may supply generated plasma to a first space 111 of the process chamber 110.

FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a method of manufacturing graphene by using a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus 100 according to exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept.

Referring to FIG. 7, a vas supplier 150 may supply an inert gas for plasma generation and a carbon-containing gas, which is a gas source for deposition, into a first space 111. For example, the carbon-containing gas may include ethylene (C₂H₄), methane (CH₄), ethane (C₂H₆), propane (C₃H₈), propylene (C₃H₆), acetylene (C₂H₂), methanol (CH₃OH), ethanol (C₂H₅OH), or the like.

The plasma generator 180 may generate an electric field in the first space 111 to thereby generate plasma. For example, carbon radicals activated in a state in which a chemical reaction may be spontaneously caused may be generated while electrons generated by, the electric field generated in the first space 111 collide with the carbon-containing gas. The carbon radicals may be diffused into a second space 112 through a second through hole 141 of a reflector 140 and a first through hole 131 of an insulating plate 130 and may be transported to the surface of a substrate 101 by convection or diffusion in the second space 112. The carbon radicals transported to the surface of the substrate 101 may be physically adsorbed to the substrate 101 or a material film on the substrate 101, or may form a chemical bond with atoms of the substrate 101 or the material film on the substrate 101. In this case, carbon radicals Ra having high activation energy may move to an optimal position found through surface migration on the substrate 101 or the material film on the substrate 101. The carbon radicals Ra may form a stable network, for example, a hexagonal honeycomb mixture. On the other hand, carbon radicals Rb having low activation energy may disappear before reaching the substrate 101 or disappear without participating in reaction on the substrate 101 or the material film on the substrate 101.

While carbon radicals are generated in the first space 111, the first space 111 may maintain a first temperature that is relatively high. For example, the first temperature of the first space 111 may be about 700° C. to about 1200° C. The radiator 160 may heat the first space 111 or heat a process gas flowing into the first space 111 through the gas injector 170 to maintain the first space 111 at the first temperature. In the condition of the first temperature that is a high temperature, the production ratio of the carbon radicals Ra having high activation energy may increase.

As described above, the first space 111 and the second space 112 in the process chamber 110 may be thermally isolated from each other by the insulating plate 130 and the reflector 140. Therefore, the temperature of the first space 111, which is a region where plasma is generated, may be maintained at a relatively high temperature, and the temperature of the second space 112, which is a region where graphene is grown, may be maintained at a relatively low temperature. For example, the temperature of the first space 111 may be maintained at a high temperature, for example, a temperature between about 700° C. and about 1200° C., so that the carbon radicals Ra having high activation energy are generated. A stage 120 may adjust the temperature of the substrate 101 at a relatively low temperature, for example, about 100° C. to about 600° C., to prevent deterioration of the substrate 101 or the material film on the substrate 101.

Generally, when graphene is grown at a low growth temperature (for example, at a temperature of about 600° C. or less), crystallinity of the graphene is degraded. However, according to exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, since it is possible to grow graphene on the substrate 101 by using the carbon radicals Ra having high activation energy under a high temperature condition, graphene having high crystallinity may be manufactured even at a low growth temperature.

FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a memory device 300 according to exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept. FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view of the memory device 300, taken along a line X-X′ in FIG. 8.

Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the memory device 300 may include a plurality of first conductive lines 320, a plurality of second conductive lines 380, and a plurality of memory cells MCP, located above a substrate 310.

A first interlayer insulating film 312 may be located on a substrate 310. The first interlayer insulating film 312 may include an oxide such as silicon oxide or a nitride such as silicon nitride. A plurality of transistors may be formed on the substrate 310 to constitute a driving circuit for driving a plurality of memory cells MCP. For example, the driving circuit may be one or more peripheral circuits configured to process data input/output to/from the plurality of memory cells MCP. For example, the peripheral circuits may include a page buffer, a latch circuit, a cache circuit, a column decoder, a sense amplifier, a data in/out circuit, and/or a row decoder. For example, the driving circuit may be located on the substrate 310 in a region vertically overlapping the plurality of memory cells MCP, and the first interlayer insulating film 312 may at least partially cover the driving circuit on the substrate 310. Alternatively, the driving circuit may be located on a region of the substrate 310 which does not vertically overlap the plurality of memory cells MCP.

The plurality of first conductive lines 320 may extend in a first direction (X direction) on the first interlayer insulating film 312. The plurality of second conductive lines 380 may extend in a second direction (Y direction) at a higher level than that of the plurality of first conductive lines 320 with respect to the upper surface of the substrate 310. The plurality of first conductive lines 320 may be word lines and the plurality of second conductive lines 380 may be bit lines.

The plurality of first conductive lines 320 and the plurality of second conductive lines 380 may each include a metal, a conductive metal nitride, a conductive metal oxide, or a combination thereof. For example, the plurality of first conductive lines 320 and the plurality of second conductive lines 380 may each include graphene, W, WN, Au, Ag, Cu, Al, TiAlN, Ir, Pt, Pd, Ru, Zr, Rh, Ni, Co, Cr, Sn, Zn, ITO, an alloy thereof, or a combination thereof. The plurality of first conductive lines 320 and the plurality of second conductive lines 380 may each include a metal film and a conductive barrier film covering at least a part of the metal film. The conductive barrier film may include, for example, Ti, TiN, Ta, TaN, or a combination thereof.

A first insulating layer 322 may be located between each of the plurality of first conductive lines 320 and a second insulating layer 382 may be located between each of the plurality of second conductive lines 380. The first insulating layer 322 may have a plurality of line shapes each extending in the first direction (the X direction). The second insulating layer 382 may have a plurality of line shapes each extending in the second direction (the Y direction).

The plurality of memory cells MCP may be arranged between the plurality of first conductive lines 320 and each of the plurality of second conductive lines 380. Each of the plurality of memory cells MCP may be located in a region where the plurality of first conductive lines 320 overlap the plurality of second conductive lines 380 in a vertical direction, and may be connected to a first conductive line 320 and a second conductive line 380, which correspond to the memory cell MCP.

Each of the plurality of memory cells MCP may include a heating electrode 330, a variable resistance memory layer 342, an intermediate electrode 344, a first interface layer 352, switch material pattern 360, a second interface layer 354, and an upper electrode 370, that are sequentially arranged on the plurality of first conductive lines 320.

A first insulating pattern 324 may be located between two memory cells MCP adjacent to each other in the first direction (X direction) on the plurality of first conductive lines 320. The second insulating pattern 326 may be located between two memory cells MCP adjacent to each other in the second direction (Y direction) on the first insulating pattern 322. The second insulating pattern 326 may have a plurality of line shapes extending in the second direction (Y direction). The first insulating pattern 324 and the second insulating pattern 326 may have upper surfaces located on the same level as the upper surface of the intermediate electrode 344. Alternatively, the first insulating pattern 324 and the second insulating pattern 326 may include a single material layer.

The heating electrode 330 may include a conductive material configured to gen rate heat sufficient to phase-change the variable resistance memory layer 342. In exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, the heating electrode 330 may include TiN, TiSiN, TiAlN, TaSiN, TaAlN, TaN, WSi, WN, TiW, MoN, NbN, TiBN, ZrSiN, WSiN, WBN, ZrAlN, MoAlN, TiAl, TiON, TiAlON, WON, TaON, C, SiC, SiCN, CN, TiCN, TaCN, or a combination thereof. The heating electrode 330 may have a U-shaped cross section, and one heating electrode 330 may be shared by two neighboring memory cells MCPs. However, the shape and arrangement of the heating electrode 330 are not limited thereto.

In exemplary embodiments of the present inventive concept, the heating electrode 330 may include graphene. In this case, since the heating electrode 330 including graphene has high electrical conductivity, the heating electrode 330 may suppress a leakage of a current that is transmitted from the heating electrode 330 to, the variable resistance memory layer 342. In addition, since the heating electrode 330 include graphene has high thermal conductivity, heat generated in the heating electrode 330 may be efficiently transferred to the variable resistance memory layer 342.

A third insulating pattern 332 having a U-shaped cross section may be located on the inner wall of the heating electrode 330.
